For it to be "milestone" implies we are moving in the right direction. The AI we have today is just putting increasingly red lipstick on a pig: we need to completely overhaul the way we're doing things if we're going to hit level 5.
- ripe 5y agoFull self-driving (not the Tesla FSD fud, but actual Level 5) is probably not possible with all the current roads and the current approach (bigger and bigger ML models with more and more data). If that's what you mean, then I agree with you. But this Mercedes announcement is something else: it is a car maker providing an engineering automation solution for a useful, limited use case that people might be willing to pay for. It sits squarely within the SAE Level 3 definition. The vendor is standing behind it; the regulators are ready to enforce the rules. It really doesn't matter what the "I want full self-driving" purists think, since they haven't actually produced anything useful yet.
